Philosophy of Ministry
Children's Ministry at the Bridge
Community Church exists to be a support to families in the raising and teaching of their children. Because parents are the primary teachers of their children, we want to support and reinforce the teaching that already exists in the life of children.
As a community, we are striving to become a
worshipping community of authentic believers. We believe this is
God's desire for kids as well. Therefore, children's ministry exists
to support parents in raising their children to become worshippers
of Jesus, integrated into community and students of the Bible.
Some key points:
- We believe that children are
important in God's Kingdom, so we seek to provide excellence in
teaching and curriculum.
- We believe that children should
receive Biblical training from the earliest stages of life and
development, so we partner with the nursery and youth group in
aiding a foundation for faith as adults.
- We believe that the Christian walk
is one of continual growth and maturity, and that children are able
to experience spiritual growth, so we seek to provide an atmosphere
where children can be challenged to grow in their faith and
character.
- We believe that children are able,
to varying degrees, take part in their own learning. So, we
seek to give children age appropriate skills in studying the Bible
on their own.
